My girlfriend and I both have MoviePass, I don’t have my phone on me but we’ve seen 8-10 movies already. It’s fun, we just run to the movies now. No more buying tickets a day in advance and then making sure we get there early enough.
We used to see movies exclusively on Saturdays or Wednesdays, when it’s cheaper, and only went to certain theaters. Now when we decide to see a movie we go whenever we feel like it, wherever we feel like it. We usually bring our own snacks/water too..
We decided to see The Last Jedi at 1:05 AM without any forethought and saw it on a massive screen with Dolby sound.
I can’t get a VC to return my cold calls/emails, but hey, at least a VC is paying for our movies.
- arkades 9y agoI thought moviepass was just a free ticket. You make it sound as though they guarantee seating or something, too?
- miiiiiike 9y agoIt is a free ticket, but it’s a free ticket without any kind of commitment. The showing you want to see is full? You’re really late? Skip it, go to the next one. Even if it’s not at the same theater. The movie you want to see is $19 at the theater down the street vs $9 on the other side of town. Go to the theater down the street with the reclining seats. We see 3-4 movies a month, MoviePass completely changed the way we think about and scheduled going to the movies. No stress.
- judge2020 9y agoWhen you head to the theatre, the cashier who takes your MoviePass will notify you if they're out of seats and MoviePass won't list the showtime as available when the theatre says they're out of seats. While you can use the walk-up approach, it's still best to make sure the showtime is open.
- donarb 9y agoBasically they put the amount of the movie on a special MasterCard. You’re not guaranteed a seat until you use that card to pay for the seat.
